Chronic migraine, 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting four hours or more, can make me feel like a spectator in my own life.

**SPEAKER_3** (0:47)
Botox, Anabotulinum Toxin A, prevents headaches in adults with chronic migraine. It's not for those with 14 or fewer headache days a month. It's the number one prescribed branded chronic migraine preventive treatment.

**SPEAKER_8** (0:58)
Prescription Botox is injected by your doctor. Effects of Botox may spread hours to weeks after injection causing serious symptoms. Alert your doctor right away as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems or muscle weakness can be signs of a life-threatening condition. Patients with these conditions before injection are at highest risk. Side effects may include allergic reactions, neck and injection site pain, fatigue and headache. Allergic reactions can include rash, welts, asthma symptoms and dizziness. Don't receive Botox if there's a skin infection. Tell your doctor your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions, including ALS Lou Gehrig's disease, myasthenia gravis or Lambert-Eton syndrome and medications including botulinum toxins as these may increase the risk of serious side effects.

All right, welcome to The Young Turks, Cenk Uygur, and I've got a special guest host for you guys tonight. Marjorie Taylor Greene, welcome, how are you?

**Marjorie Taylor Greene** (9:01)
I'm great, Cenk, thanks for having me on tonight.

**Cenk Uygur** (9:04)
No problem, so we're gonna do the first hour together, and then Yasmin Ali Khan's gonna come for the second hour. But boy, do we have a lot of amazing stories for both of us to comment on. So in this hour, we've got Lindsey Graham has passed away, obviously we'll talk about that, and his replacement.
Israel would like to merge our militaries, is that a good idea? And of course, there's new reports out from Benjamin Netanyahu about that. And Representative Ro Khanna was detained by Israeli settlers in the IDF, curious to see and hear what Marjorie Taylor Greene has to say about that. So we'll get to all of those stories in a minute. But let's jump right into the news because there's so much to get into. So let's start with Lindsey Graham's story.

**Benjamin Netanyahu** (9:48)
So we were receiving American support, military aid. And we've done this through successive presidents. We did it with, the first one was with Clinton, and then it was with Obama, and then with Trump, sort of a 10 year MOU, Memorandum of Understanding, where America gives Israel much valued support. Now when I did this, when I negotiated this, I said, okay, this is what we need. We don't need any more. He said, yes, you do. I said, Lindsey, we don't need any more.
And he would tell me, no, I'm going to go over your head to the Senate, because I think you need more on missile defense or whatever, okay? And I think once or twice he got his way.

**Cenk Uygur** (10:35)
So we're going to talk about the whole record of Lindsey Graham in a minute. But I want to just jump to Marjorie's opinion on this clip right from the get go. And then I'll tell you the record of how much of a war monger Lindsey Graham was and what his final mission was.
But Representative Greene, what do you make of Lindsey Graham demanding that America give more to Israel, even more than what Netanyahu wanted?

**Marjorie Taylor Greene** (11:02)
Well, as one that knew Lindsey Graham personally, that doesn't shock me or surprise me. However, it disgusts me as a conservative and as one who focuses on America first policies. The last thing that we want to see happen is Americans hard earned tax dollars being directed to a foreign country and a US Senator fighting so hard to make sure that more and more more American dollars go to Israel. And that's exactly what so many Americans are sick and tired and fed up with. However, I would like to point out Bibi Netanyahu's arrogance as he reminds Americans, and I think that was on Fox News, that how many presidents made sure that there was aid and money and weapons that go to Israel, as he talked about Lindsey Graham. And then he talked about Lindsey Graham going above and beyond. And he's reminding Americans that because that is exactly what he expects. And I think he also says this to push buttons and outrage people because it has outraged people. It's outraged many Americans.
